1. A method for operating an on-board electrical system of a motor vehicle having a control unit comprising,waking up the control unit into an operating mode starting from an energy saving standby mode, wherein a predetermined wake-up operator control event, is detected by means of a sensor arrangement, wherein each wake-up operator control event has an associated time interval from a preceding wake-up operator control event, wherein the associated time interval is ascertained when a wake-up operator control event is detected, and the control unit is woken up or not woken up as a function of the time interval, wherein each wake-up operator control event has an associated switch-off indicator which is ascertained each time a wake-up operator control event is detected based on the time interval of said wake-up operator control event, and wherein the control unit is woken up or not woken up as a function of a level of the switch-off indicator with reference to a switch-off threshold, and wherein a change in a current switch-off indicator relative to a preceding switch-off indicator in a direction of the switch-off threshold is greater the smaller the current time interval.
